A walk with Jonney at Othona

 Always an inspiration! Wildflowers, hedges that offer habitat for biodiversity and wildlife corridors- listen to the birds in the background!

We have created a hierarchical worldview and placed our species at the top, instead of playing an integrated part in its life processes.  This attitude and behaviour is destro...
